{ United Press Sports Writer | EPSOM, England, May 30 —Arctic Prince, a 28 to 1 shot, won the 172d running of the Engiish Derby today at Epsom Downs. | Sybils Nephew was second and Signal Box third in a photo finish.

Easy Triumph Sybil's Nephew was a 50 to 1 shot and Signal Box, who drew ithe best of most of Britain's raile way workers, went off at 20 to 1. Arctic Prince was ridden by Charlie Spares as he galloped to one of the easiest triumphs in the recent history of the race. The three horses behind the brown colt finished virtually as one. Sybil’'s Nephew, owned by Lord Milford, was guided by Emanuel
Mercer. Signal Box, owned by F. W. Dennis, was ridden by Britain's cr a ¢ k steeplechase
jockey, Martin Malony. { Arctic Prince was timed in 2 {minutes, 39.4 seconds. The Derby record of 2:33.8 was set by the ‘Aga Khan's Mahmoud in 1936. The starter had difficulty getting the bulky field away. When they broke, Part Du Lyon jumped into the lead followed by the favored Ki Ming and Mystery IX. Mystery IX went to the front ‘at the half-mile mark with Malka's 'Bov and North Carolina and .Nyangal close on his heels.
